Lyrics Jars Of Clay – Flood
Text:
Rain, rain on my face
It hasn’t stopped raining for days
My world is a flood
Slowly I become one with the mud
Chorus:
But if I can’t swim after forty days
and my mind is crushed by the crashing waves
Lift me up so high that I cannot fall
Lift me, oh
Lift me up — when I’m falling
Lift me up — I’m weak and I’m dying
Lift me up — I need you to hold me
Lift me up — keep me from drowning again
Downpour on my soul
Splashing in the ocean, I’m losing control
Dark sky all around
I can’t feel my feet touching the ground
Chorus
Calm the storms that drench my eyes
And dry the streams still flowing
Casting down all the waves of sin
And guilt that overthrow me
Chorus
Lift me up — when I’m falling
Lift me up — I’m weak and I’m dying
Lift me up — I need you to hold me
Lift me up — keep me from drowning again
